Comment on .MPO to Anaglphic or Stereo Pair JPG by Pete Shand

I’ve just decompiled the swf, but doing this kinda of messes up the code (all the variables lose there names)..
so I’ve also replaced all the 3rd party library src, but all my code (in campaign) and main.as will be a little unreadable, but you should still be able to see whats going on. source can be downloaded from: http://peteshand.net/blog/media/downloads/mpoToJpeg.zip

If you end up adding any functionality I’d be interested in hearing about it.

Cheers
Pete

Hi Kyle

Hmmm I usually post the source, but i seem to have forgotten in this case… and to make matters worse i don’t remember where i saved the working files. they might even be on an old computer. but from memory basically all I’m doing is loading the .mpo into a bytesarray and then searching for header info which states where each images starts and ends (an mpo file is pretty much just two jpgs with a bit of extra info about where each image is in the file and the offsets, etc etc), splitting them into two bytesarrays and then decoding the images.

Hi Pete, This is awesome! I tried using your app but the left picture does not get sized correctly. Would you mind sharing how you did this in flash?

Hi Pete

I can succesfully install it to my Samsung Galaxy S2 and it runs but the text is not voiced. I have confirmed that I have requested internet access in my permissions. So not sure what is going on. I will also try to figure it out.
Thanks

Paul

Hi Pete

It runs in the emulator and even loads onto the device but the text is not read. If you have Flash CS5.5 just try running it using the AIR for Android publishing setting.

Thanks

Paul

Hey Paul

There shouldn’t be any reason why it wouldn’t work… but yeah i haven’t tested on Android.. maybe there are security errors. probably the best thing to try is running your application on your android with the debug environment running (This can be found in flash cs5 through the following tool bars: “Debug” > “Begin Remote Debug Session” > “Actionscript 3.0″), this should give you feedback on why its not working, then post back here with the results.

Hey Andre. yep, absolutely. You just need to set the Lang property on your TextToSpeech object.
eg:

^?View Code ACTIONSCRIPT

1	textToSpeech.Lang = 'fr';

or you can import ps.GTranslate.Language and this will give you code hinting for all the supported languages.
eg:

^?View Code ACTIONSCRIPT

1
2
3

import ps.GTranslate.Language;
 
textToSpeech.Lang = Language.FRENCH;

Also if you haven’t already seen the other posts on google text to speech you can check them out here (although some of these examples might be out of date)
